The Grand Manner is an artistic style that emerged in the 17th century, particularly in painting and portraiture, characterized by its emphasis on grandeur, idealization, and classical themes. Artists aimed to convey nobility and virtue through dramatic compositions, strong contrasts of light and shadow, and a focus on heroic subjects. This approach often drew inspiration from classical antiquity and the Renaissance, seeking to elevate the subject matter to evoke admiration and inspire moral contemplation. Notable practitioners include artists like Anthony van Dyck and Joshua Reynolds.
